Chapter 171 Hero saves beauty
The village chief's wife was soaked, so she didn't bother to pay attention to her husband's words. She went back to the house to change into clean clothes, then came out again and looked up at the sky.
Looking at the rain, it was like the sky was torn open and the water was pouring down. People couldn't help but feel frightened. The village chief frowned and spoke with some concern.
"Oh, if this rain continues for a whole day, I'm afraid the crops in the fields will be flooded..."
Hearing her husband's words, the village chief's wife's eyes were filled with worry.
"Yes, this rain does look a bit strange. I've never seen it rain so heavily before. It's as if someone is pouring water down from the sky in buckets..."
A night passed, and the rain showed no sign of abating. The village chief became increasingly anxious.
Now he thought that if the houses were flooded, it would be fine. After all, everyone had followed Han Yizhong to grow peppers this year and had earned a lot of money. Without those farmers, at least they would not starve. But if the houses were collapsed by the flood, it would be troublesome.
Of course, this wasn't the worst. Their village was located on a mountainside. If a mudslide occurred, the entire village would be destroyed...
Thinking of this, the village chief could no longer sit still. He decided to call a meeting of the villagers to discuss how to deal with the rain disaster. However, before anyone could get up, there was a knock on his door.
"Village chief, village chief, something bad has happened. My house collapsed due to the rain..."
Hearing this, the village chief was shocked and didn't even bother to put on his raincoat. He hurried forward to open the door, and when he saw the person coming, he asked.
"Is anyone hurt..."
"No, we saw that something was wrong, so we ran out immediately..."
The visitor was Chen Da Huzi from the village. They had lived in a thatched house for many years. A few days ago, they earned some money from selling chili peppers and wanted to build two adobe houses. However, the houses collapsed due to flooding before the bricks were even made.
Hearing that no one was hurt, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he thought about the situation in the village, he couldn't help but feel worried again.
Most people in the village live in thatched houses. It should be said that in the entire Zhushan Village, except for the houses of Aunt Han Yizhang and the village chief, all the houses are thatched houses. Judging from the rain, it is likely that more than just Chen Da Huzi's family will have their houses collapsed by the rain.
Sure enough, just when the village chief was about to ask Chen Da Huzi to go back and bring his family over to his house to take shelter from the rain temporarily and deal with other matters after the rain stopped, he saw a few more families coming from a distance. Before they got close, they shouted at the village chief.
"Village chief, it's bad, my house collapsed due to the flood..."
"My house was also flooded and collapsed..."
Looking at the families that came, the village chief frowned more and more. There was nothing he could do. After all, his house was only so big and couldn't accommodate so many people...
Han Yiyi sat by the window, watching the rain which had been falling for a whole day and night but showed no sign of abating. She felt a little uneasy in her heart. Although her house was made of blue bricks and tiles, it was the closest to the mountain behind.
If a mudslide or landslide occurs, her family will be the first to suffer.
She stood up and just opened the door when a cold wind blew in her face. She shivered. It was June now, and the day felt even more abnormal.
Looking up at the sky, he saw dark clouds, lightning and thunder. The rain was not decreasing, but was getting heavier. Han Yiyi felt more and more uneasy.
She returned to the house, put on her raincoat and hat, and wanted to go out. She wanted to check the mountains behind to see if there was anything unusual. At this moment, she was very glad that her two children were left in Kyoto.
But just as he put on the hat, Yun Xiao took it off, put it on his own head, and started talking.
"You stay at home, I'll go see..."
Han Yiyi didn't dare let the young master go and see, so she quickly stood on tiptoe to take back the hat.
"No, no, it's still me..."
Before Han Yiyi could finish what she was saying, she slipped and fell straight towards Yun Xiao, knocking him to the ground.
Of course, Yun Xiao was not so soft. He was knocked down on purpose.
Yun Xiao was already a head taller than Han Yiyi, and the eaves were wet from the rain, making them a bit slippery. When Han Yiyi stood on tiptoe to take the hat off Yun Xiao's head, he somehow slipped.
Looking at the person lying on his chest, Yun Xiao's mouth was stretched to his ears. Worried that Han Yiyi would notice something, he quickly retracted his smile and thought to himself, it seems this trick really works.
It turns out that Yun Xiao had deliberately scattered a few drops of oil in the corridor when he served breakfast that morning, hoping that he would come to the rescue when Han Yiyi fell. This was also the reason why he followed Han Yiyi wherever she went that morning...
Han Yiyi didn't know that Yun Xiao had tricked her. Seeing that she had knocked the man down, she quickly stood up.
While apologizing, he reached out to help Yun Xiao. Yun Xiao took the opportunity to hold Han Yiyi's hand and said with a smile: "Yiyi, are you throwing yourself into my arms?"
After hearing Yun Xiao's words, he knew that this guy was going crazy again. He couldn't help but roll his eyes at him. He didn't want to pay any attention to this "ignorant of the sufferings of the world" young master. So he reached out and pulled the hat that was pressed down from under his head, turned around and walked out...
Because he used too much force, he actually pulled out a lot of the hair of the person on the ground. He screamed in pain again, but the corners of his mouth were raised high.
Seeing that the man had already strode out the door, he hurriedly picked up another hat and quickly followed him.
They walked around the back mountain twice, one step deep and one step shallow. Feeling that there was no danger for the time being, they prepared to go back. However, as soon as they turned around, Han Yiyi felt a pain in his ankle. When he lowered his head, Han Yiyi felt his hair stand on end.
I saw a bright red snake tightly wrapped around her ankle, with its head raised high and its tongue sticking out of its mouth.
Han Yiyi was so scared that her face turned pale and she almost fainted. She wanted to shout for help, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked by something and she couldn't make any sound. Her whole body seemed to be slightly numb.
Yun Xiao, who was standing by, was also frightened by this sudden scene and turned pale. Looking at the color of the snake, he knew it must be poisonous.
Without having time to think, he reached out to grab the snake. As soon as he got close, he was bitten hard by it. Yun Xiao looked at Han Yiyi's pale face and ignored the pain. He struggled to pull the thing off Han Yiyi's ankle.
When the cold touch disappeared, Han Yiyi seemed to regain some consciousness and heard the electronic sound repeating in her ears.
